How OpsHub Integration Manager integrates Micro Focus ALM and Modern Requirements4DevOps

OpsHub Integration Manager integrates Modern Requirements4DevOps and Micro Focus ALM (Formerly known as Micro Focus ALM / QC and Micro Focus ALM Octane) in a bidirectional manner. It ensures that all historical and current data is available to each user, in that user’s preferred system, with full context, in real-time. All ‘requirements’ from Modern Requirements4DevOps automatically synchronize to Micro Focus ALM and all the defects associated with the ‘requirement’ synchronize back to Modern Requirements4DevOps.

Use Case: Modern Requirements4DevOps integration with Micro Focus ALM

Problem statement: The product management team doesn’t have insight into the quality of work from the development team.

Solution: When Modern Requirements4DevOps is integrated with Micro Focus ALM (Formerly known as Micro Focus ALM / QC and Micro Focus ALM Octane), the product manager will have real-time insight into the types of defects logged by the quality control team, the priorities of these defects, and the overall quality of work.

  1. The Product Manager creates a ‘user story’ in Modern Requirements4DevOps, defines its priority as ‘High’, and adds descriptive comments for the development and quality control team.
  2. The ‘user story’ synchronizes to Micro Focus ALM along with the priority and description.
  3. Based on this user story, the quality control team writes a ‘test case’ and links it to the corresponding user story.
  4. When the development team completes the work on the user story, the quality control team runs the defined test case and as the test case fails, logs a failure in Micro Focus ALM. The quality control adds further insight into the defect by adding descriptive comment.
  5. In Modern Requirements4DevOps, the status of the ‘user story’ changes to ‘failed’. The related defect also shows up under this ‘user story’.
